ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืกืœืื ื’ ืœื ื™ืงืœ.

ืื– ืื ืฉื™ื ืขืœื•
01:37
and not just in Los Angeles but across the country.

And within one year,

ื•ืชื•ืš ืฉื ื”
01:41
by 1915,
24
101920
1680
ืขื“ 1915,
01:44
there were 50,000 rides per day in Seattle,

ื”ื™ื• 50,000 ื ืกื™ืขื•ืช ื‘ื™ื•ื ื‘ืกื™ืื˜ืœ,

45,000 ื‘ื™ื•ื ื‘ืงื ื–ืก,

To give you some perspective,

ืื•ื‘ืจ ื‘ืœื•ืก ืื ื’'ืœืก

ืžื‘ืฆืขื™ื 157,000 ื ืกื™ืขื•ืช ื‘ื™ื•ื ื›ื™ื•ื.

ืžืื” ืฉื ื™ื ืžืื•ื—ืจ ื™ื•ืชืจ.
02:09
And so these are the trolley guys,

129560
1720
ื•ื›ืš ื™ืฉ ื”ืจื‘ื” ืื ืฉื™ ื—ืฉืžืœื™ื•ืช,

They were clearly not happy about the jitney juggernaut.

And so they got to work

138440
2015
ืื– ื”ื ื”ืชื—ื™ืœื• ืœืขื‘ื•ื“
02:20

2617
ื•ื”ืœื›ื• ืœืขืจื™ื ื‘ื›ืœ ืืจื”"ื‘

And there were all kinds of regulations.

148520
2496
ื•ื™ืฉ ื›ืœ ืžื™ื ื™ ืจื’ื•ืœืฆื™ื•ืช.
02:31
There were licenses -- often they were pricey.

ื”ื™ื• ืจืฉื™ื•ื ื•ืช -- ื”ืจื‘ื” ืคืขืžื™ื ื”ื ื”ื™ื• ื™ืงืจื™ื.
02:33
In some cities,
40
153320
1416
ื‘ืขืจื™ื ืžืกื•ื™ืžื•ืช
02:34
if you were a jitney driver,
41
154760
1376
ืื ื”ื™ื™ืช ื ื”ื’ ื’'ื™ื˜ื ื™
02:36
you were required to be in the jitney for 16 hours a day.

ื”ื™ื™ืช ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ื‘ื’'ื™ื˜ื ื™ 16 ืฉืขื•ืช ื‘ื™ื•ื.
02:40
In other cities,
43
160880
1376
ื‘ืขืจื™ื ืื—ืจื•ืช,
02:42
they required two jitney drivers for one jitney.

02:45

1896
ืœื”ืชืงื™ืŸ ืื•ืชื” ื‘ื›ืœ ื’'ื™ื˜ื ื™ --
02:53
to stop a new pernicious innovation which they called spooning.

(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
02:59
All right. So what happened?
50
179040
2176
ืื– ืžื” ืงืจื”?
03:01
Well, within a year this thing had taken off.

ืชื•ืš ืฉื ื” ื”ื™ื™ืชื” ื”ืฆืœื—ื” ืžืกื—ืจืจืช
03:04
But the jitney, by 1919, was regulated completely out of existence.
52

03:10
That's unfortunate ...
53
190880
1200
ื–ื” ื—ื‘ืœ...
03:13
because, well, when you can't share a car, then you have to own one.

ื•ื‘ืขืœื•ืช ืขืœ ืจื›ื‘ื™ื ื–ื™ื ืงื”

ื•ื–ื” ืœื ืคืœื ืฉืขื“ 2007

ื–ื” ืจืง 4% ืžื”ื‘ืขื™ื” ืฉืœื ื•.

And so back in San Francisco, where I live,
84

ืื– ื‘ืกืŸ ืคืจื ืกื™ืกืงื•, ื”ื™ื›ืŸ ืฉืื ื™ ื’ืจ,

the situation's much worse,

ื”ืžืฆื‘ ื”ืจื‘ื” ื™ื•ืชืจ ื’ืจื•ืข.

ืœืžืขืฉื”, ื”ืจื‘ื” ื™ื•ืชืจ ื’ืจื•ืข ืžืกื‘ื™ื‘ ืœืขื•ืœื.
05:06
And so the beginning of Uber in 2010 was --

ื•ื›ืš ื”ื”ืชื—ืœื” ืฉืœ ืื•ื‘ืจ ื‘ 2010 ื”ื™ืชื” --

well, we just wanted to push a button and get a ride.

We didn't have any grand ambitions.

ืœื ื”ื™ื• ืœื ื• ืฉืื™ืคื•ืช ื›ืœ ื›ืš ื’ื“ื•ืœื•ืช.
05:14
But it just turned out
90
314320
1336
ืื‘ืœ ื”ืกืชื‘ืจ
05:15
that lots of people wanted to push a button and get a ride,
91

2896
ืฉื”ืจื‘ื” ืื ืฉื™ื ืจืฆื• ืœืœื—ื•ืฅ ืขืœ ื›ืคืชื•ืจ ื•ืœืงื‘ืœ ื ืกื™ืขื”,
05:18
and ultimately what we started to see was a lot of duplicate rides.
92
318600

ื•ืžื” ืฉื”ืชื—ืœื ื• ืœืจืื•ืช ื–ื” ื”ืจื‘ื” ื ืกื™ืขื•ืช ื›ืคื•ืœื•ืช.
05:24
We saw a lot of people
93
324360
1776
ืจืื™ื ื• ื”ืจื‘ื” ืื ืฉื™ื
05:26
pushing the same button at the same time

ืœื•ื—ืฆื™ื ืขืœ ืื•ืชื• ื›ืคืชื•ืจ ื‘ืื•ืชื• ื–ืžืŸ

2456
ื•ื”ื•ืœื›ื™ื ืœื‘ืขืจืš ืื•ืชื• ืžืงื•ื.
05:31
And so we started thinking about,
96
331680
1576
ืื– ื”ืชื—ืœื ื• ืœื—ืฉื•ื‘ ืขืœ
05:33
well, how do we make those two trips and turn them into one.
97
333280

ืื™ืš ืœื”ืคื•ืš ืืช ืฉืชื™ ื”ื ืกื™ืขื•ืช ื”ืืœื• ืœืื—ืช?
05:37
Because if we did, that ride would be a lot cheaper --
98
337840
3336
ื›ื™ ืื ื ืขืฉื” ื–ืืช, ื”ื ืกื™ืขื” ืชื”ื™ื” ื–ื•ืœื” ื™ื•ืชืจ--

up to 50 percent cheaper --
99
341200
1480
ืขื“ 50% ื–ื•ืœื” ื™ื•ืชืจ --
05:43
and of course for the city
100
343160
1256
ื•ื›ืžื•ื‘ืŸ ืœืขื™ืจ
05:44
you've got a lot more people and a lot fewer cars.

05:47
And so the big question for us was:
102
347520
2376
ื•ืœื›ืŸ ื”ืฉืืœื” ื”ื’ื“ื•ืœื” ืขื‘ื•ืจื ื• ื”ื™ื™ืชื”:

would it work?
103
349920
1296
ื”ืื ื–ื” ื™ืขื‘ื•ื“?
05:51
Could you have a cheaper ride

ื”ืื ื™ื›ื•ืœื” ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ื ืกื™ืขื” ื–ื•ืœื” ื™ื•ืชืจ
05:54
cheap enough that people would be willing to share it?
105
354640

ืžืกืคื™ืง ื–ื•ืœื” ื‘ืฉื‘ื™ืœ ืฉืื ืฉื™ื ื™ืจืฆื• ืœื—ืœื•ืง ืื•ืชื”?
05:58
And the answer, fortunately, is a resounding yes.
106
358360
3240
ื•ื”ืชืฉื•ื‘ื” ื”ื™ื, ืœืžื–ืœื ื•, ื›ืŸ.
06:02
In San Francisco,

ื‘ืกืŸ ืคืจื ืกื™ืกืงื•
06:03
before uberPOOL, we had --

ืœืคื ื™ ืื•ื‘ืจ-ืคื•ืœ, ื”ื™ื• ืœื ื•
06:06

And the bright colors is where we have the most cars.

06:12
And once we introduced uberPOOL,
111
372880
2136
ื•ื›ืฉื”ื›ื ืกื ื• ืืช ืื•ื‘ืจ-ืคื•ืœ ืœืคืขื™ืœื•ืช,
06:15
well, you see there's not as many bright colors.
112

ืžื•ืจื™ื“ื™ื ืจื›ื‘ื™ื ืžื”ื›ื‘ื™ืฉ.

It looks like uberPOOL is working.

384440
1920
ื ืจืื” ืฉืื•ื‘ืจ-ืคื•ืœ ืขื•ื‘ื“.
06:27
And so we rolled it out in Los Angeles
116
387240
2440
ืื– ื ื™ืกื™ื ื• ื–ืืช ื‘ืœื•ืก ืื ื’'ืœืก.

ืœืคื ื™ ืฉืžื•ื ื” ื—ื•ื“ืฉื™ื.
06:32
And since then, we've taken 7.9 million miles off the roads
118
392560

ื•ืžืื– ื”ื•ืจื“ื ื• 7.9 ืžื™ืœื™ื•ืŸ ืžื™ื™ืœื™ื ืžื”ื›ื‘ื™ืฉ.

06:51
But my favorite statistic --

2456
ืื‘ืœ ื”ืกื˜ื˜ื™ืกื˜ื™ืงื” ื”ืื”ื•ื‘ื” ืขืœื™ --

06:59
my favorite part is that eight months later,

ื”ื—ืœืง ื”ืื”ื•ื‘ ืขืœื™ ื”ื•ื ืฉืœืื—ืจ ืฉืžื•ื ื” ื—ื•ื“ืฉื™ื,

we have added 100,000 new people that are carpooling every week.

Now, in China everything is supersized,
128
430200
2840
ื‘ืกื™ืŸ, ื”ื›ืœ ื’ื“ื•ืœ
07:13
and so we're doing 15 million uberPOOL trips per month,
129
433720
4376
ื•ืœื›ืŸ ืื ื—ื ื• ืขื•ืฉื™ื 15 ืžื™ืœื™ื•ืŸ ื ืกื™ืขื•ืช ืื•ื‘ืจ-ืคื•ืœ ื‘ื—ื•ื“ืฉ.

that's 500,000 per day.
130
438120
2056
ื–ื” 500,000 ื‘ื™ื•ื.
07:20
And of course we're seeing that exponential growth happen.

07:25
And when I talk to my team, we don't talk about,
133
445320
2376
ื•ื›ืฉืื ื™ ืžื“ื‘ืจ ืขื ื”ืฆื•ื•ืช ืฉืœื™, ืื ื—ื ื• ืœื ืื•ืžืจื™ื:

And so uberPOOL is a very great solution for urban carpooling.

465960
1936
ืื‘ืœ ืžื” ืขื ื”ืคืจื‘ืจื™ื?
07:47

ื–ื” ื”ืจื—ื•ื‘ ื‘ื• ื’ื“ืœืชื™ ื‘ืœื•ืก ืื ื’'ืœืก,

ื•ื›ืœ ื‘ื•ืงืจ ื‘ืขืจืš ื‘ืื•ืชื” ืฉืขื”,

ืื– ื”ืฉืืœื ื• ืขื‘ื•ืจื ื• ื”ื™ื:

ื•ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ื™ื•ืชืจ ืื™ืงื•ื ื™,
